Discussion: Provisionally included in dsinezumi (Corbet, 1978 c); but regarded as a separate species by Imaizumi (1961, 1970 b), Abe (1967), Jenkins (1976), Corbet and Hill (1992), and Hutterer (1993 a), among others. The species was first described by Kuroda (1924) in a publication which, although privately published, has been regarded as available by all subsequent authors. See Motokawa (1998) for a review of the species.
